Apologies if I've posted this in the wrong place but I'm hopefully going to be putting a deposit down on a used Focus Style 1.6 Auto (2008 UK model) this weekend.

Apart from doing the usual HPI / MOT / Service History checks & taking it for a test drive, I'm hoping I can get some advice on here with regards to any known faults / issues with the 5dr Focus 2008 (08 plate) Auto model before I put my money down.

my opinion - don't buy automatic!!! that 4-speed is old mazda design and with that transmission focus gets to 62 in around 14 seconds and has awful fuel consumption!
and its noisy!
i didn't drive it but i read about it!
buy manual!
